Racing and Sports highlight our standout plays for Australian TAB meetings on September 18.
Major Australian Throughbred Tab meetings are today held at Randwick, Belmont, Gold Coast, Morphettville, Tatura and Wagga.
RANDWICK: RACE 9 @ 4:35 PM
SHE'S IDEEL (14) was very good fresh before just a touch flat last start in the Chelmsford. Should be nearing her peak now and is sure to relish the step up in trip. Gets in very well down in the weights and looks very hard to beat. MONTEFILIA (3) beat home the former last start and she too should be better suited out to 2000m. Gets a big weight swing (4.5kg) against her which is the knock. SPIRIT RIDGE (4) went super first up he just has to overcome the wide draw while KUKERACHA (2) also has to be included despite drawn off the track. He should be ready now. SELECTIONS: Very keen on She's Ideel.

BELMONT PARK: RACE 6 @ 3:55 PM
IMAGE KEEPER (2) is a smart type who won three straight before no luck as a short priced favourite at Bunbury. Impressive trial winner and is the one to beat. CAMPESE (1) was closing in on a win before disappointing last time. Blinkers go on and on previous efforts is a big threat. INDIGO BLUE (6) is trialling very well for a return and it wouldn't surprise if she's in the finish somewhere fresh. LITTLE FLIRT (5) is racing well and JAG THE JOKER (4) is next best.
SELECTIONS: Image Keeper to win. Trifecta 2-1,4,5,6/4,5,6.
GOLD COAST: RACE 9 @ 4:43 PM
RUN FOR GLORY (2) is close to a win having placed at both runs since a spell. Back in grade after taking on open company where he was grabbed by subsequent Doomben Mile winner Ballistic Boy in the final strides. Has won four from six at this distance and has a win and a placing from two visits to this track. Proven third up so is ready to peak and win. Hard to knock the form of CATESBY (1) who has scored back-to-back wins at this distance range. Up in the weights but is going well. FULL NELSON (5) comes off a Doomben win, his third success from five outings last campaign. Must respect. TOKORIKI LAD (3) will enjoy the rise in distance off a solid resuming effort while ULYSSES (4) is honest and in the mix.
SELECTIONS: Run For Glory to peak and win third up.
MORPHETTVILLE: RACE 8 @ 4:35 PM
Best race of the day is the W H Wylie Hcp. Some good sprinters here led by KEMALPASA (1) who has all the best form and so has the biggest weight. When you've mixed it with Behemoth and Celebrity Queen in feature sprints you just need to bring your best. He's a good tough horse. PARLOPHONE (12) has come good this prep without winning. Nothing wrong with any of those outings. BOLD STAR (3) drops back off contesting the feature Melbourne sprints. He just needs some confidence. TERBIUM (7) is the interesting runner. He does go well fresh. Has a chance at the weights. FREE OF DEBT (4) has now found his true form. Clearly going well.
SELECTIONS: Keen on Kemalpasa and a save on Terbium.
TATURA: RACE 8 @ 4:31 PM
CHAIRMAN'S CHOICE (1) has a win and three seconds from last four appearances. Looks ideally suited to land the money here. Should go close. MOUNTAIN IBIS (2) returned with a solid performance at Echuca last week. On the quick back-up here and is expected to run well. SNIPERESS (8) is returning from a spell and having first run for new stable. Looks a suitable race to kick-off in. Worth considering. ROKATTA (11) has performed well in both outings this campaign and can keep the good work going here.
SELECTIONS: Back Chairman's Choice to win.
WAGGA: RACE 6 @ 4:11 PM
AFFINITY BEYOND (5) has a very good fresh record with two wins. Likely to push forward and is sure to go close if she runs up to her mark. SEVENTH SEAL (8) was a winner at Albury last start as the favourite, and has been in solid form this campaign with two wins and four places from six races. Sits handy in the run and is expected to be in the finish. DELACOUR (4) showed good early dash and led for most of the way before being claimed and finishing 2.5 lengths away in second over 1200m at Queanbeyan. Form at this distance is strong with four wins from seven starts and is expected to run well. PROUD MIA (6) hasn't made an impression in her last few starts since resuming despite the market confidence. Last start ran ninth at Sunshine Coast. Clearly capable when right, keep safe.
SELECTIONS: Very keen on Affinity Beyond in her return.
